    Hot water pressure was very very low, staff was informed, but in the end there was not much improvement. Luckily it is hot in summer days so is fine.

    Very good location near Talaat Harb roundabout, very very nice and friendly staff. Facilities are a bit outdated, but is is totally fine. Decent breakfast. There is even a kitchen you can use. Very clean and comfy for me, and barely hear noise from outside. Decent room size.

    The AC in our room was a little old and difficult to set up, but it worked, which in the end is all that counts.

    Perfect location in downtown Cairo. The hostel is in the 6th floor of a building so not noisy as the street below. Lots of restaurants and cafes in the area. The staff is super helpful and accommodating (we arrived at 8am and they quickly prepared a room for us, even though check-in is not until noon + gave us strong yummy coffee), plus had tons of useful recommendations for local eateries in the area. No pressure to book any tours, cars or restaurants throughout them, which was refreshing. The room was spacious with a big window and lots of natural light. Shower pressure was excellent. Breakfast was good. There are many negative comments about the elevator, but we have many such old elevators in Paris; they're old but functional and great for cute elevator mirror pics :) The building, as many in downtown Cairo is a true Art Deco gem.

    Elevator!

    Very good choice to be in downtown Cairo. The rooms were comfortable, although the bathroom was not so (tiny shower). Clead bedsheets. Not very noisy considering where it is. Finding it was a bit tricky and the elevator a bit scary, but worth it.

    Honestly, I can’t think of anything that really bothered me. Everything went smoothly and I had a great stay

    I really loved the location on Talaat Harb Street — right in the heart of Cairo! The room was one of the cleanest and nicest I’ve seen in Downtown. Harb gave me such a warm welcome, and Omar was extremely professional and helpful during my whole stay. Their service made the experience unforgettable.

    I booked Nour Hostel for just one night, as I only needed a place to shower and wait for my evening flight, so I stayed just a few hours. The hostel is located in downtown Cairo, very close to the Egyptian Museum. The room was large and comfortable, and both the air conditioning and the shower heater worked perfectly. Despite being in a busy area, there wasn’t much street noise. For the price, I think it’s a very good option.

    This hostel, located on the sixth floor, offers a peaceful escape from the lively street below. The location is excellent, with easy access to the metro, bus station, and the historic Islamic Cairo. The neighborhood is a foodie paradise with fantastic street food options. While not a luxury stay, the price is reasonable and the hostel provides a clean and comfortable base for exploring the city. Enjoyed the included breakfast.

    Location is very good. Authentic building. All you need in Cairo is nearby — street food, street markets, Nile, metro station. It's loud, crowd, old and chaotic neighbourhood, but this is heart of the Cairo and Egypt. Clean and comfort rooms. Good travelers vibe. Staff are very helpful.

    There was not many things to dislike. What one thing could be improved is to have a shower curtain so only part of the floor is wet after a shower not the whole floor. Also, tissue box would be helpful too.

    Ahmed the caretaker of the property was kind and humble in his dealings with me throughout. He would really adapt to my needs whether it is an early breakfast or laundry of clothes even on late requests from my side. Housekeeping was on point too. I really was relaxed and felt home.

    Fantastic staff, amazing place. We went as a couple, and we were incredibly surprised! Location is phenomenal, right in the centre of downtown Cairo. Hygiene was very good, so was breakfast.

    We really liked the location, it is close to the egiptian museum and also close to the famous bazar Khan el Khalili, the metro station is also a few minutes away if you need it. You have everything on the street you wish for - restaurants, shops, markets, it is a very interesting street where you can feel a bit of their coulture. The staff of the hostel is really kind and helpful, they helped us with the trip to the Giza pyramids. The breakfast was delicious and the room was really clean. We really liked everything, we wish we could stay longer.
